Vegetarian pate is a hearty, heart-healthy recipe that can be used as a dip or spread. Sweet peas are a good source of protein and Vitamin A, while the walnuts are jammed with omega-3 essential fatty acids, which help reduce risk of cardiovascular disease.
Total cooking time: 8 minutes.
EquipmentEdit
- Pot
- Hand-held blender or food processor
IngredientsEdit
- 1 medium onion
- ¾ cup walnuts
- 1 can sweet peas
- ⅛ teaspoon (a pinch) salt
- ⅛ teaspoon (a pinch) black pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon (a pinch) ground cumin
DirectionsEdit
- Sauté onion with walnuts in a pot for about 5 minutes.
- In a different bowl, combine sweet peas, salt, black pepper and cumin. Mix the ingredients well.
- Add the sweet pea mixture to the onion and walnuts, and continue sautéing for about 3 more minutes.
- Turn off the heat and let cool. Puree with a hand-held blender or in food processor until you achieve a creamy, though slightly nutty texture similar to that of pate or dip.
- Serve with crackers, bread, baby carrots and other snack type vegetables.
